yep that a plan....I was eating about 1100 and went up to 1300 and lost alot its nice to see the number on the scale go down again. I went for 3 mo before I got the hang of eating more. I only lost 1lbs in that time. So just try it for a week or two and see if it helps.

I'd love to join in! I have a wedding in August (and my bday too!!), and I'd love to look REALLY good for it!! I have a little more weight to lose than a lot of you though..

I also found since I upped my calories I am losing more weight. Brown rice is higher in calories and only has 2 grams of fat per 1 cup cooked!

Aimee - Nice to meet you.

Leigh- I am so glad I found this thread thanks for your support We will see if it works on Monday when I weigh in !

Hey if I can do this so can you!!!! I know you will do just fine...

Im hoping to make my final goal by the 4th I'll be seeing my brother in law thats off in the military and he hasnt seen me since I weighed 163, Im hoping he'll notice,, everyone else I know sees me everyday so they dont see as much of a change.

Oooooo, sounds great! I'm in. Now I just have to think of what my goal will be....

Hi Everyone!! I just joined this board today - but I've been working on losing since Oct last year (I started at 200).

Anyways, I have a mini goal of 15 lbs lost by the beginning of July - so when I saw your thread I thought, Yeaaah!!

I'm definitely losing the weight for ME, but it just so happens there is a special guy coming back to town in July... Of course, I want to knock his SOCKS OFF - and, more importantly, I want to extra degree of security and confidence that'll come with losing 15lbs...

I'm using what I learned on the South Beach (3 months, Oct - Dec), and then counting calories... Trying to stay between 1200 and 1700 calories per day. Also, I do Spinning 3 x's a week.

Welcome to all you new chicks

Ok ladies wake up! Get your butts out of bed! Get moveing! Burn some caks!

We have goals to make!!!!!!!

I think I am down but will not post it till Sunday.
Is someone going to keep a running total like the April 1 thread? I love seeing how much we lose as a group. You got to love seeing the over 300lbs we lost.....I want to keep that going.

Morning Leigh congrats on the drop even if it is not official yet.

I am going to peek at the scale today. I ate 1300 calories yesterday and included more calcium and 196 ounces of water. I 'm hoping to see a change. I am going away this weekend so eating right tomorrow may be a struggle. Wish me Luck!

Hi,
I am new to this group. I have a total of 95 lbs. to loose. How much should I try to loose by July 4th. My 22nd anniversary is July 11th. So, I would like to look slimmer and feel better by than. Also, where do you find the weight scales. They are too cute!!

Just click on my tracker...It will take you there.
I am only setting small goals....they are easer to make.

Good luck Nikki

I usually try for one pound a week. That's how i set my goal for July 4th.

Okay, my official weigh in day is on Friday's. So, for this challenge, I am down 2 pounds!! I feel like I am off at a running start. Sure hope i can keep up this rate. I could be at my final goal in no time if I could keep up a 2 pound a week loss.

Yay! Lumifan.. 2 pounds.. Congrats

WTG Lumifan! 2 lbs is great! Keep it up!!
